Comments on: Omnisky hints at what's coming up

I attended an OmniSky focus group meeting 1/20/00. Lots of knew stuff coming up; some will be quicker then others. About the meeting: 11 participants, 9 men 2 women. Although the mix among the participants' occupations ranged from a SF police department member, to a construction materials salesperson, most everyone was a "Computer Consultant" of some fashion. What else could you expect when you hold a meeting like this smack in the middle of Silicon Valley? Read More...

Hotsyncing

Many people, including myself, are already hotsyncing using the minstrel V. Very easy to set up and takes about a minute. Email me if you have ?s and check out the omnisky group at egroups.com

I know, I've been hotsyncing too with the modem button. I can't believe that Omnisky's techs continue to say (over the phone and by email) that it can't be done. Very unprofessional/unprepared!

Set-up was three steps!!!

Whoa! I think I didn't fully explain the modem sync issue here. FYI: We talked freely in the meeting about hotsyncing via the modem, and that a number of people [in the meeting and elsewhere] are already doing it. What I said above [ment to at least] was regarding the hardware itself, and what the ultimate function of that big middle button would be. Sorry for the confusion... I don't know about tech support people as I havn't inquired about modem syncing. My opinion about the tech department's refusal to acknowledge modem syncing [if it's true and I have no reason not to believe what you wrote above] is this: "Currently, the beta test does not include modem sync. Although it is possible; enhanced value added services such as OSE-mail, OSYellow & OSWhite page searching are our key goals at this time" ;) ...I've got some more scoop that I plan on passing on to Ryan. Stay tuned...
